Local Content

+ MultiChoice is the biggest investor in local content on the continent, producing 3 850 hours of local content in the past financial year. + This investment has reinvigorated film and television industries across the continent, resulting in a proliferation of exceptional original local productions and the discovery of talent both in front of the camera and behind the scenes. + We believe in the power of entertainment to enrich lives by showcasing compelling local and international stories, which bring people together around a shared love for storytelling. + During 2019, MultiChoice produced 28 local dramas, 13 telenovelas and 17 comedy series.

Local Films

+ We are incredibly proud of the local films that we have been involved with

• ver the last number of years.

+ Our local films always scoop local and international awards, notably Knuckle City last year was the Oscar entry from South Africa, and we will continue to strive for greatness. + However, the last year has been quite challenging. From funding to cash flow to the COVID pandemic – you as producers have been stretched. Release platforms are also quite limited which means our revenue streams are limited. + We’d like to propose a straight to BoxOffice release model that I know you will be excited about.

+ Our audience are mainly English and are exposed to mainly international content. + However, in recent years we’ve increased our local content slate which is part of our mandate as a company. + In terms of demographics, our audience is are quite mixed but mainly WCI between the ages of 34-50

JAN DU PL ESSI S – M - N E T C H A N N E L S

+ Previously, Sunday nights used to be a big ‘local’ night for us but we’ve since changed our strategy and our focus is on a local Thursday night but we’re very excited about Legacy which started last week Mondays to Thursdays. + Therefore, our key slots are at 7pm with our long running drama series; at 7:30pm which is our reality slot and then at 8:30pm which is our scripted slot.

JAN DU PL ESSI S – M - N E T C H A N N E L S

+ Last year we also went with a ‘first on M-Net’ when we replaced the Sunday night movie for five weeks with our first international co-production with HBO which was Trackers. + Trackers did incredibly well for us, and we’d like to emulate that in the future so our international co-production series will continually be aired in that slot.

M-NET CHANNELS

+ Our Thursday reality slot is usually highly entertaining reality content on par with the international reality shows on

• ur schedule that resonate with our audience but are strong

formats with returnable potential. + The Thursday night scripted shows are a variety of genres focusing on suspense, thriller, sweeping romantic or family dramas and hopefully action series as well.

+ Our local film slate has expanded over the years and we are incredibly proud of what we have achieved to date, despite all the challenges faced in our industry. + It is important to MultiChoice that our local film slate is reflective

• ur society but also universal and resonates globally.

+ We look for highly commercial films that appeal to the movie watching audience based on the story or actors. + Romantic dramas or comedies; thriller, action and suspense; horror films, films based on popular South African books; these are the kinds of genres that we are looking for.

M-NET CHANNELS

+ We are also keen to produce films that are in our local languages as we are catering to our different clusters in their languages. + Our films are usually a combination of funding from ourselves, the DTI, the NFVF, the ECDC or the KZN film commission but recently we have delved into (what we call) TV movies or straight to platform releases. + These films are usually a slate of films addressing a theme or hol- iday or campaign such as Christmas films, Valentine’s Day films or even Horror films.

We are looking for strong and solid concepts that offer the following:

+ New universes - uncharted spaces and worlds not yet explored. + Untold Stories – Reality Shows like Uthando Nes’thembu, Mnakwethu and Life with Kelly brought to our viewers stories we thought we knew, but went deeper to uncover untold stories. + Stories focusing on relationships – be it family, friends or lovers. The emotional relatedness is an easy sell for creating stakes in a story. Viewers appreciate this content beyond belief. + Family-based reality shows such as The Ranakas, Uthando Nes’thembu and Papa Penny. The serialized structure of these reality shows offers us

• pportunities to venture into unscripted soapies.
• ur sister show such as Massive Music.

We are looking for strong and solid concepts that offer the following:

+ We appreciate formatted concepts – these offer the brand longevity. Shows like Utatakho, OPW, Date My Family and Real Housewives are examples of formatted shows that are not reliant on particular individuals to drive the series. These concepts are more of a sustainable long-term investment. + With regards to ‘Emotainment’, we need the industry to expand their creativity beyond ‘Help Shows’ such as Utatakho, Yimlo. + We need the production industry to expand their offering to family based reality shows, fly-on-the-wall type reality, where there is no intervention needed, social experiment content. + We are looking for edgy and risqué type content for Showmax. Content that pushes societal norms and values – Temptation Island would be an example of such a show.

kykNET

Our partnership with Showmax is giving us an opportunity to produce more edgy & risque content for their platform and for later slots on our channels An ideal drama series, according to our viewers, is one that

• include “suspense and intrigue” and “action packed themes/scenes”
• Possibly avoid “out of the ordinary relationship stories and problems”
• Is 48min per episode
• There is no specific number of episodes that should ideally make up a season - but we don’t

have to stretch to 13 eps, if the story organically asks for 8, 9 or 10 eps = Mini-series

kykNET

Scripting, current affairs and documentary offering

What we are looking for Authentic concepts, compelling stories and scripts.
